This study seeks to examine factors that might impact whether care providers of people with intellectual or developmental disabilities engage in actions that facilitate client self-determination and contribute to independent decision making opportunities. Based upon a theoretical vignette, the study explored whether: (1) the level of self-determination facilitated by support professionals would decrease as the severity of intellectual disability (ID) of the vignette client increased, (2) vignette clients diagnosed with Down syndrome (DS) would have lower levels of self-determination facilitation than vignette clients with a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), (3) having a comorbid diagnosis would impact the relationship between severity of ID and facilitated self-determination, and (4) as the number of hours worked by participants increased, the amount of self-determination they facilitated for their theoretical clients would decrease. To test these hypotheses, a vignette and possible response items to the vignette were developed about a 35-year old man selecting an appropriate shirt to wear to work. The responses endorsed by participants were intended to reflect their degree of facilitation of client self-determination in variations of this hypothetical vignette. Findings based on the responses of 127 care providers in Minnesota reflected a statistically significant difference between the mean self-determination score for the mild ID group and the severe ID group and between the mild ID group and the moderate ID group. In terms of diagnostic category, statistically significant differences in reported levels of self-determination were not observed. This study expands the body of literature suggesting adults as well as children with developmental and intellectual disabilities likely receive differential opportunities for independent choice making based on their perceived abilities. Suggestions for future research are discussed.
